I have 2 centos boxes and I want to NFS mount a dir from one to the other. When I do that the files on the client all are owned by nobody.nobody. I verified that the user and group of the files on the server exist on both hosts and have the same uid and gid. I googled and found this: http://whacked.net/2006/07/26/nfsv4nfs-mapid-nobody-domain/ domainname on both machines returns (none). I edited /etc/resolve.conf on both and put 'domain foobar' as the first line in both. But then when I did a 'service network restart' the files were re-written and my changes were gone. On one system /etc/resolve.conf says "Generated by NetworkManager". On the other system it says "generated by /sbin/dhclient-script" (I didn't set these systems up.) I don't even know if this domain stuff is even the correct solution. I just want the NFS mounted dir to retain the real user ownership it has on the server. How can I achieve that?
